It's that time of year for "best songs of the year" lists. And for what feels like the first time in a long time, I think there was a lot of really good music released this year. Seems guitar is back at least a little. Strong year for R&B, soul and blues. Less Billie Eilsih and Ed Sheeran morose pap, more rock you can actually dance to. Even some dinosaurs did good work: Sting, Tears for Fears, Jackson Browne, Plant/Krause, Vedder.

Some of my favorites from 2021: Amethyst Kiah (Black Myself), Kingfish Ingram (622), Neal Frances (Can't Stop the Rain), Jon Baptiste (I Need You), The War on Drugs (I Don't Live Here Anymore), The Hold Steady (Family Farm), Middle Kids (Questions), Modest Mouse (We Are Between), Gang of Youths (Angel of 8th Ave)... there's a lot more.

And then there's Galaticana by Strand of Oaks - known for [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHSQm8scRcQ']12 minute trippy epics[/URL] with great harmonies and guitar work, but who haven't sniffed much of anything radio-friendly. Until this year. Three guitars and a drummer can still get it done...
